# Marketplace Navigation

The marketplace is the central hub where users can engage in lending and borrowing activities. Here’s how to get around:

1. **For Lenders**: You can browse existing borrow requests or create a lending pool with customized terms. Use your **Basename** to manage multiple pools and track interactions with borrowers.
2. **For Borrowers**: Explore available lending pools or create your own borrow order. Set your desired loan amount, interest rate, and duration, and use your **Smart Wallet** for secure transactions.
